Research Notes - Meditite
Similis mentis
The humanoid Medicham are famed for their mental resolve and physical capabilities. They are thought to be a relative of Machamp, trading in some raw physical strength for intellectual prowess. Many people seek to emulate these Pokémon in meditation, hoping to seek peace or enlightenment. Some ascetics go as far as to completely adopt their lifestyle, spending their lives fasting and meditating alongside them. It is said that only one human has ever completely achieved the same transcendent state of existence as these Pokémon, having reached it under a mountain tree alongside his own Medicham.
Diet |
These Pokémon intentionally fast in order to practice restraint and strengthen their power. Meditite strive to only eat a single Berry each day, while Medicham can go for over a month without eating at all.
|
Care |
Both Meditite and Medicham maintain strict training regimens to test both their spiritual and physical limits. Meditite have a harder time during training, though, and can lose focus in loud and noisy environments. Because of this, urban trainers should find quiet dojos or other places their Pokémon can train in peace. Medicham, having practiced their concentration, can train even in disruptive situations with ease.
|
Caution |
These Pokémon are not hostile or dangerous towards humans. Medicham in particular almost never fight people, instead choosing to peacefully practice in remote mountains. They can skillfully camouflage so hikers never even know they are there. Meditite are a bit feistier than their evolutions and may lash out when provoked; however, they try to regain their composure and ignore the aggressors rather than fight back.
